I'm here to present You my two suggestions about the ND server.
1. To limit the number of sniper rifles available for covert ops, as in the case of engineers(M1 Garand). In my opinion, it is really annoying when, for example, there are about 6 or 7 snipers playing at the same time.
2. To introduce auto-shuffle: when there are three more players in the opposing team, then the teams would be shuffled. There is one disadvantage of this idea, mainly players could go to spectators to force the server to auto-shuffle.

I’m not really convinced of my second idea. I wanted to introduce it to you anyways, so that you could share your opinion on the forum.

1. It annoys me a bit if half of my team are snipers. But I don't think we need changes in class/weapon system right now. Maybe in future.
2. Not autoshuffle, but autoput. I really think it's necessary. 2 days ago Axis had 5 times >=3 less people in 1 map (with 5-10 people per team), !put and !shuffle didn't work, not to mention friendly requests.
Look at this thread. It works well in Vietnam but unfortunately Jaymod doesn't support LUA. Ligustah told he will try to code a QMM plugin for that when he will have time. So need to wait.

I agree on both points, half a team of snipers is annoying if its my own team or in the opposite team.
If there would be a limit of snipers i wouldn't disagree.

Yes, as I said waiting for Ligustah to implement it.

Because firstly it's unfair for those who are in team with less players if they are moved to another team as it isn't their fault.
Secondly it removes mines and can take weapons from people which they had used before because of limits - again unfair.
Thirdly it sorts by xp so it can create teams like good players as defenders and worse as attackers and it will result in another need to !shuffle because the worse players leave after max 3 minutes (happened to me few times lately).

So, the autoput solution is MUCH better and I've seen it working in some big servers without any complain, in the opposite to shuffling.

Another option is members evening teams but yea..... if I tell someone to change teams because it is supposed to be members job I get responses like "don't abuse", "don't threaten me" or simple "no". And those are admins of servers. Ridiculous. Still they get promoted.

Well yea not to mention much about random !putteam, since it shouldn't hit on our spot.
But many visitors dont like that if it hit on them, but still we should even teams before someone is going to do random put...

Lets wait for that auto shuffle then
